Vice President Mike Pence has largely escaped the recent Trump controversy unscathed, ensuring to keep a low profile as partisan backlash is exchanged. That may change on Sunday, however, with students of Notre Dame University threatening to cause a ruckus when he takes stage as the 2017 commencement speaker, according to USA Today.

Norte Dame undergraduate student Xitaly Estrada said in a statement, "The participation and degree-conferring of VP Pence stand as an endorsement of policies and actions which directly contradict Catholic social teachings and values and target vulnerable members of the University's community."
